3 sisuke, sinyuke siye eBheteli, senze khona isibingelelo kuThixo, owandiphendula ngomhla wokubandezeleka kwam, obe nam endleleni endandihamba ngayo.
4 Bazinika uYakobi zonke izithixo zasemzini ebezisesandleni sabo, namajikazi abesezindlebeni zabo; uYakobi wazimbela phantsi komoki* obungakwaShekem.
5 Banduluka; uqhiphulo-mbilini ngoThixo lwaba phezu kwemizi ngeenxa zonke kubo, àyabasukela oonyana bakaYakobi.
6 Wafika uYakobi eLuzi, esezweni lakwaKanan, ekwayiBheteli, yena nabo bonke abantu ababenaye.
7 Wàkha khona isibingelelo, wathi loo ndawo ukuyibiza nguThixo waseBheteli; kuba kulapho uThixo wazityhilayo kuye, ekubalekeni kwakhe ebusweni bomkhuluwa wakhe.
8 Wafa uDebhora, umanyisikazi kaRebheka, wangcwatywa ngasezantsi kweBheteli, phantsi kom-oki; kwathiwa igama layo nguMoki wokuLila.
9 UThixo wabuya wabonakala kuYakobi ekuveleni kwakhe ePadan-aram, wamsikelela.
